  • Hey Jesus Christ Muslim----YOPU ARE A FUCKEN IDIOT

  • greed...poor f*cker....pun intended.

  • Where did all the money that Madoff defrauded so many of go? It must have gone to Money Heaven in an underground vault somewhere in the Negev Desert in Israel.

  • This is why I think Madoff should be executed.

  • ban imposed advertisment fraud exploitation.

  • Comment removed

  • So sad that we put so much value on wealth. If I had millions of dollars I would just spend it to buy good performing laptops for some of the neediest people out there. Sometimes helping others rather than being self centred can be so rewarding. :)

  • The Madoff case shows what our world economy is based on. This is truly terrible. The moment you made it through the gotha, through the ones that count, you become automatically untouchable. And they will always be people like Madoff using, enjoying this system. As they will always be people suckin' into it.

  • If you mean that I have faced adversity, yes I have.

  • thumbs up if you turned the volume off and didn't watch the ad!

  • lmfao!!!! stupid rich people think its the end of the world when they see how the rest of us have to live!!!!

  • these fuckin' people can't live without earning their 40 million dollars a year.

    fuck him, burn in hell.

  • well why did these people put there money into Madoffs scams ,.lets be honest a quick buck ,.(greed ) people have only there own  greed to blame .

  • Judas Iscariot, Julius & Ethel Rosenberg and now Bernie Madoff. Anybody see a connection ??

  • @onecoolgreek thats right ,churches dont give money either ,they will pray for you

  • Bernie Madoff is The King of the Jews !

  • @k3304 the bad jews not the good ones

  • terribly sad. He personally caused so many personal tragedies... (that I don't even know of since I am not American). This is almost a way to kill someone without doing it physically

  • @USAneedsaChange wonder why germans were so mad ,how about a thousand madoff in this country and your children died from lack of money.

  • @tomanyasses oh, so Madoff represents all Jews? how about 80 million Hitlers, Himmlers, Görings, Göbells etc.?! These sh*theads were actually murderers and thieves and yet here you focus on Jews... You don't assume that all 80 million in Germany + all other Germans in the World are sick nazi bastards I guess? Why not if Madoff is to represent all Jews?

  • @applesalamanderpie so funny no we dont

  • I think the media was a big part of this

  • @2arunout there part of all the bad shit going on.

  • @onecoolgreek I agree that one needs certain needs met to be happy, but there are ways around money. Friends can barter. It works. I've never made that much money, but I'm happy.

  • @AmusedChild wow your so smart not!!!!

  • @tomanyasses Wow! Saying "not!" after a statement! How original! Especially after misspelling "you're." (I did not know that I had a "smart not.")

  • @tomanyasses I did not know that I had a "smart not."

  • @AmusedChild you got smart ass mouth though another sign of an idiot

  • @tomanyasses Well, you have a dumb ass mouth, so grow up.

  • Madoff  motherfucker ...

  • Poverty... I hope he looks that word up in the dictionary some day...

  • life is worth much much much more than a billion dollars, or 50 billion dollars, or a billion billion billion billion dollars

  • @regragi1 really , could of fooled me ,when our insurance refuse tests and the person dies whats that, nice blow you have. ten thousand children die in usa every year from car accidents lets fix them cars so none die its one trillion. oh dont forget thousand children drown each year in usa. lets all get covers for pool , 500 billion cost wow were running out of money .

  • I dropped $5 on the street the other day and was charged with littering because paper money is worth shit hehe. Just kidding.

    When it comes to paper read some good books. Knowledge is the new currency and don't you forget it! ( stunpalsdotcom)

  • Madoff FUCK YOU

  • and that's how it feels to be 80 percent of United States of America!!!

  • The EEBC you suck .stay out of America

  • Us fucking americans work our whole lives ,not like you scum ,stay out of the U.S.A. TheEEBC.

  • FUCKIN AMERICANS U CAN ALWAYS CATCH THEM WITH MONEY....ITS SAD THOUGH BECAUSE EVEN ONE OF THEM MUST HAVE BEEN A GOOD PERSON! BUT THE REST I CAN BET USE TO PASS U ON THE ROAD AND THINK OF U AS A LIL NO BODY CUZ U WERENT RICH SO FUCK MOST OF THEM!!!!!!

  • HAHAHAHAHA! Greedy fucks! Glad he's dead. Selfish superficial prick. Hope you went to Hell.

  • Madoffs victims were chumps and they deserved to lose their money.

  • It's called get a job you piece of shit. What's wrong? Did you ever have one?

  • Even though I've never known having the kind of money that the two people that had taken their own lives knew due to madoff's scheme, I still feel sorry for them. They might have previously dealt with depression and then the situation was just too much to handle. It's really unfortunate how naive people really are and the lesson from this financial debacle and others like it is to keep your money in the bank and perhaps just a money market account ;) Trust no one :)

  • I feel zero sympathy. The idiot should kill himself.

  • oh poor "inv3stors" !!!

    One fraudster is better than 13 000 of'em. The average money they gave to this convex headed bastard is 5million$ each- based on 65blln/nine zeros/

    Sou you tell me that hatmaker sold hats worth 5 million . And he gave all he had to 'bestbrokeronwallstreet" .I should deplore them cos they can't efford the registration of the caravan, e? None of them is starvin I tell ya. Madoff is a criminal, but at least didn'shoot someone for 20 bucks. He just stole from thiefs!

  • i think "with a flip of a switch many people are in poverty" is a big exaggeration......

  • No sympathy here. This is what happens when money is your god.

  • dumb cunt

  • Rotten greedy bastards like Madoff is why this country is going to shit - and the politicians are stupid enough to be bought by them - and we are stupid enough to vote for the politicians. It's time for a second american revolution.

  • Comment removed

  • mafia never work asholes

  • no more money...go back to work assholes

  • Madoff is An AHOLE

  • Bernie, Ruth and his kids are the biggest thieves ever know. These crooks know where to hide stolen money. I hope these people will rot and die in hell.

  • Rich people trying to get more wealth -- then, BAM! It's gone. Oh, sweet justice. The people who got ripped off by Madoff aren't idiots... I mean, most of them are millionaires. So how could they be this idiotic?

    Oh, yeah, that's right... they didn't let their "silver spoons" and bankers and middle class schlubs who do all the work for them take care of this investment for them.

    I liked it better when people were lead on to believe this happened to people in "Middle America".

  • because making money is bad?

  • No, because idiots with money, who want to make more money are inherently morons. Unless they have someone who will "Rape," "Pillage," and "Burn" the rest of the other's involved when it comes to making more then what they have.

    I can see making a few bucks. But destroying people's lives so that you can have more then you need- that's just fucking criminal.

    It's all about making more then the amount you have when it comes to millionaires, billionaires, and trillionaires... it's never enough.

  • exactly ...it's just money.

  • Madoff even his family did not care about others they just want to have the other money, ashame no that family his wife with the money the mistrees with money and ano writing a book about her shit and inmoral issues with madoff do not listen to them they deserv to go to hell.

  • this sort of thing is an example of "social/ economic darwinism". in the age of atheism, the free market has become almighty god to people. their entire life is quantified by a balance sheet/ income statement. im better than you because im worth more than you, regardless of how i came about my money. the people involved w/ madoff are culpable in their own financial death to the extent of their involvement. welcome to free-enterprise 101. class dismissed.

  • The jew destroying the lifes

  • Rich people... they don't even know how to lose. Sad.

  • I'm sorry for my vitriol, lexagon. Of course you're right and I applaud your civility. Your words were very sensible; so much as to show me the error in my way. Thank you for your much more human a response. Hatred can only lead to even worse results. And of course you're right. Even at these awful times that the previous 8 years have unfolded, it's time for sanity.

  • Bullshit. He was killed.

  • No penalty is sufficient for this demon. I only wish he's assaulted in that luxury prison he finagled his way into. How they let his wife keep millions is unbelievable. Those victims of his should be allowed their ounce of flesh. Please, please let that smiling prik come to some horrible assault that leaves him in agonizing pain. They should addict him to drugs and then deprive him of them like they did to Goering. He and his wife should die a thousand deaths in pain and agony.

  • Madoff pulled off a very reprehensible trick on us investors, causing untold damage not only to businesses and families, including mine, but I think you're taking it a bit far with those wishes. I certainly hate the man, but I don't want to see anyone be treated like that, no matter what they've done. I think that until investors realize that phantom profits just don't exist then there'll always be another Madoff around the corner, waiting to rip us off.

  • Come one. Its just money. Bernanke will reprint it.

  • madeoff you bitch!

  • this guy they interviewed certainly motivated me..i think i'll go outside and piss in the wind..have a good day

  • Comment removed

  • no offense but... ahaha. stupid americans... lol... money.. money... money....ahahaha.

  • really when you lose every thing its not just money any more

  • ahahaha. stupid...

  • maddoff is a legend.. if you fell for him your a dickhead

  • Suicide is not worth it! I have been poor. I have cried myself to sleep over money - but always came out okay. Death is the end - I don't believe in an afterlife, so don't kill yourself over paper. Okay, a billion dollars is a staggering amount to lose, yes, but if you believe in yourself, and you have true friends, you won't starve. Poor, poor guy! To think that despite my job being cut at work I'm relatively secure and happy, and I've never made that much money. I guess small is beautiful.

  • I agree. I think people need to realize that their greatest worth is within themselves. If this person who committed suicide had realized that, the suicide wouldn't have happened. But there's no shortage of insecure people in this world.

  • @AmusedChild what a lovely thing to say.

  • @AmusedChild when u r poor then become rich then poor again then its ok and u can make it through poverty....but when u r rich and never seen poverty then its not easy.....and u suddenly discover that all them friends that were lovely when u were rich suddenly abandon you sav for the few words of condolences then they depart and never see u again.....thats what hurts most.....more so if those that abandon u are close people like wife or kids.....and so called friends that u knew all ur life...

  • @AmusedChild you've been oppressed.

  • Someone please kill this man...

  • who suck big black dicks that fucking madoff

  • dont bring big black dicks into this, they had nothing to do with madoff.

  • they will soon.

  • eww. only in your white fantasies.

  • Why would someone kill themselves because they lost money or got stolen?

    white people these days.........

  • are you fucking retarded? 1 billion dollars. from a money manager point of view basically its better to kill yourself, your career is over

  • alexcool - a BILLION dollars, most likely not all his. and what the fuck does being white have anything to do with it, racist.

  • I don't know that you can explain the problem that simply. There are trends that apply to certain groups more than others. Recognizing that is called profiling, and you're using it. I agree with you about trends, but simply explaining the issue along the lines of skin color alone isn't very effective. I'm white, I'm not materialistic, and I speak out regularly about the behaviors of the WHOLE country that precipitated 9/11.

  • This creep even swindled Elie Wiesel i heard 0_o

    He should be barred for life!!!!

  • yeah he's gettin the alabama black snake in the pooper

  • Hey, who do you think is more repulsive, Bernie Madoff or George W. Bush?

  • Bush.

  • Jews! Your money is in Israel!

  • Comment removed

  • look for money in safedeposit boxes,other banks ,hiden safes .

  • Russian Intelligence reports are stating today that Israels incoming right-wing Nationalist Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has ordered President Obama to release disgraced Wall Street investor Bernard Madoff or risk full and total war.

  • Torture should be reserved for people like this

  • No.

  • It's quite tragic. Some rich people aren't' snobs, but hard workers who deserved their success. It's tragic news when the middle class and poor are tossed around in the economy, but when even the financial titans, the rich and well off, crumble before us, it's scary, no matter what you fella bout them. If they can't weather the storm, who can?

  • Madoffs are responsible for this death- they should pay with their lives,..

  • At least they only want your money. The even more psychotic religions, like Christianity and Islam actually have to kill people to glorify their god.

  • Glorify God? You will need him one day anna, and you will find he was always there with you x.

  • My only regret is that I have but one soul to condemn to an eternity of torment in protest of the tyranny of your deity.

  • so sad! billions lost! i don't even have a million! like they all said, "how high you fly, that's how high you fall'

  • amazing, doesn't this bastard believe in god?

  • i dont know what the deal is with religion...example...my aunt goes to church every sunday..very nice warming person (at least it seemed that way) she ripped my mother off 300 thousand dollars...our house is in foreclosure...i cant pay for my college...dude..do not ever for a million years believe that "if you go to church" you are a good person fuck that shit, they are only fooling themselves they are people just like you and me..and those church people can even be worse than satan at times.

  • Well, with Christianity is, you can break every rule in the book and still believe you will go to heaven because you believe in Jesus Christ. Which defeats the purppose of a bible. Just believe in Jesus and you're set.

  • he will be taking his dumps in front of an audience now and getting his crusy old rear plooged regularly.

  • crusty old rear..lol..dont drop the soap Bernie...

  • Madoff is greedy and also the people who invested for a quick and large return is greedy as well. Why didn't they invest in putting America back to work? Our country needs to get back to producing products.

  • Madoff was a modern day Robin Hood. He stole from the Rich and gave to the Poor through charity.

    Isn't Social Security the large Ponzi scheme?

  • That fucking disqusting bastard madoff and his family will hopefully have karma bite em in the ass really bad for 20 years of investment fraud to all those poor people.

    I hope his family ends up in the streets under a bridge and bernard madoff gets beaten and raped in jail!

  • bernard madoff and his sons

    his wife ruth madoff

    his brother peter madoff

    his niece shana madoff

    All were involved in the scheme! Only when the tide turned against them did they decide to save the family fortune and bernie decided he was the oldest and would do the least amount of time in prison since he is well over 70.

  • Oh Noes! A bunch of multimillionaires lost a few of their millions. What a shame. Maybe they won't be able to buy that personal jet they've always wanted. I'm sure the laid off blue-collar workers at GM, Ford and hundreds of other businesses will be praying for them.

  • Mega Says:

    People always live up to their names.... Take his name for instance... Bernie Madoff"... When someone screws you over, they have "Burned (Berned)" you... As far as his last name, that's what he did. He "Madoff" with over 50 Billion dollars! Used in a sentence... "Bernie Madoff with nearly 50 Billion".....

  • Ha Ha , the filthy jew pig destroyed his own filthy jew pigs and their all crying about their life savings being gone. That what you get when you trust a jew!

    Hitler was right! GO HITLER!!!!!!!

  • this is what greed does.some of these so called people are just as greedy as madoff.i dont feel sorry for them.when you go to vegas and lose your money they dont bail ya out.i say no bail out.let this be a lesson.

  • fuck madoff and all the rich fuckers he ripped off. they all got what they deserved.

  • Bernie Madoff should be executed for the crimes he has commited. Do not be suprised to find out that this is tied to 9/11 This is a small piece of the 9/11 puzzle.. Ask George Bush why he and Madoff were holding hands. Is America that Fuck'n stupid

  • Sometimes I wish I wasn't a God fearing man. I wish I was a ganster so I could buy this Madoff f*ck a "necktie." But only after I showed him how much I liked him....by cutting off his hands and feet with a jagged knife. Oh, and I'd like to gouge his eyes out with a hot spoon. And let's see...oh, and cut off his d*ck and ram it down his throat with a clothes hanger. But like I said, I 'm a god fearing man, so it's just a healthy fantasy. Can I get an amen somebody.

  • why was that photographer pushing the man? thats assault

  • because he's a criminal

  • Innocent until proven guilty. Plus even criminals have rights,

  • He's pleaded guilty.  He has blood on his hands - kill him. No tax money should be used to keep him alive.

  • You are clearly fucking retarded.

    Blood on his hands? He scammed people out of money. Some idiot suicided because he didn't want to wait for the scammer to be arrested, doesn't make him a murderer.

    Ontop of that, you kill him how do you think they would get the money back? It would be transferred to his next of kin, who would then be wealthy as fuck.

  • The money is gone. It's not coming back whether he's alive or not. Flushing away the life savings of someone and not giving a fuck is on par with killing someone. I know you're still busy playing video games so it might be hard to imagine.

    Just put him on death row. Why are you sucking his cock so much?

  • No its not you dumb shit. Have you not even paid attention to any of the news on this case? He has over 60 to 70 million still saved as well as many other millions in off shore banking.

  • Frankly, I don't give a shit about the money - it's mostly millionaires losing out. Either way, the 50 billion isn't coming back and he deserves a lot more than a little shove in the street. The system is too light on white collar crime.

  • Uh you are fucking retarded, all they care about is the money.

    and no he is going to jail for the rest of his life, that isn't "too light".

  • Yes it is. Stop sticking up for the prick.

  • What more is there than a life sentence? Don't tell me you think we should kill him?!?!

  • That's exactly what I'm saying. I have no sympathy for him. People who commit white collar crime have been getting off too lightly for too long. Enough is enough.

  • blame cannot all be on madoff. the financial system has failed the people. the regulalatory bodies in usa have failed.

  • I'm not saying it is all his fault but that doesn't change the fact that he's a criminal who has shown no remorse whatsoever. Zero tolerance or it'll just happen again.

  • what good is trying to put spilt water back into the bucket? the important thing is to reshape the whole system to prevent. punishing him will not deter others from doing the same thing. im not saying he should get away with it, he will spend the rest of his life in jail, not seeing his sons grow up, and away from his family. his sons also had a lot to do with it, basically madoff took the bullet for his family. so for him it makes little difference what happens to him

  • Well why have the death penalty then? He didn't give a fuck about other people so why should we give a fuck about him? It makes a difference when tax dollars are paying for his 3 meals a day and a roof over his head.

  • And it's the fault of the guard who slept on duty that your warehouse got broken in to, but the thief is still totally responsible.

  • @downwiz2 I totally agree. The whole financial system itself is a ponzi scheme. The loans are distributed out but the interest is never accounted for. Therefore someone is forced to work in order to pay for the debt + interest and left hanging. The money runs short somewhere but money always go up hill to the banks and eventually makes its way to the central bank (federal reserve / private corp). The national debt + it's interest goes to the fed. Imagine how much cash that is on 12.5+ trillion.

  • @downwiz2 Yeah, blame the "USA" instead of the guy who really did it? Why the f*** did this dumb comment get 10 thumbs up? How immature are people of my generation?

  • @downwiz2 so do our courts you have alot to learn about the world. if you knew what was going on you would be a drunk or religious person .

  • @downwiz2 madoff did not really cheat anyone....most bpeople got 10 percent or more....the ones that lost were the late comers....at least the ones that took profits recovered some of the money....had the govt left him he would still be paying profits to old money from new money and everything would have been ok....pulling the plug on him makes no sense.....he was doing ok....lets face it the govt does the same thing and its been going on for more than 200 years....new money will pay old money

  • Yes it is. He's an old man.  What's the point in giving him 150 years?

  • madoff is not the one to fear, its the jews that want bailout for the jews who lost money in this scheme! with aipac they are trying to make hardworking americans by bailout pay for these jews to stay in their plaza hotel appartments!

  • Well lets kill them too - its them who fucking started this crisis in the first place. They say every society is 3 meals away from anarchy so might just see some actual justice yet.

  • dude, you were starting to sound reasonable and understanding but now your just getting fucking annoying, stop defending this fucking criminal you stupid fuck...is he your father?

  • I am reasonable and understanding. As for "stupid as fuck" Sorry no I am quite intelligent. Enjoy your failed logic in thinking criminals don't have rights, the justice system is there for a reason maybe you should look it up.

  • I hate madoff give him the death penalty

  • Prosecute Ruth Madoff

  • Prosecute the whole family. They were behind the whole thing.

  • Madoff is a jew.

    Jews are all crooks.

  • i would put it under wrecklessness according to that chart below....

    since this poor soul killed himselF due to MadoFF irresponsible actions.....

    regardless this leech needs to get liFe in prison the real prison...

  • Kosher investing rocks.

  • Devastation and Tradgety?! Fucking yuppies crying about their millions when people with NO money are loosing their jobs

  • You are an idiot. You are too young to understand. These are not just yuppies, they are people who have worked all their lives to save a million dollars and now it is gone. A millionare is not a "millionare" anymore. It just means you have enough to hopefully live gracefully before you pass on. Grow up pal.

  • I've never met a millionare that hasn't made it there by lie/cheating or stealing his way to the top....Out of all the people that got screwed by Madoff, I would guess only 1% got their money by being honest. The rest are nothing but scammers, and the scammers just got scammed...

  • velocity73R,

    I've met several that made they're money through intelligent planning and hard work, but I've also seen more crooks

    I currently work for a multimillionaire who on hot days, will buy 25-30 "Juice Stop" fruit drinks (at $4.00 each) and personally walk them out to his employees working outside in the heat, not too many like him

  • Ordinary people did not get the "opportunity" to invest with madoff.

    The greed of these people clouded their judgement.

  • i hope you get aids

  • Let this be a lesson to all potential investors. Do your research! If it sounds too good to be true, request an in depth SEC investigation...

  • The SEC were the ones who allowed Madoff's company to get away with swindling money from investors without making a single trade for the last 13 years.

    The problem is the federal police weren't doing their job, or were suspicious on Bernie's payroll. It all boils down to trust which no longer exist in America. DId it ever?

  • You are a moron

  • What the fuck do you need 40 billion $ for?..
